Default Nitrous Express questions

Hey guys,
I have a 96 accord lx 4 door 4 cylinder w/o v-tec. Yes, I know it sucks. Anyway, It's basically a show car, but I decided to get some Nitrous to help it out. I bouht a NX kit with a NOS purge and a NOS heater. I was told I should get a remote bottle opener, nitrous pressure gauge, and rich/lean gauge. Is this all true? Also planning on getting an AEM CAI(about time anyway). Right now I have NGK Platnium series plugs...they were like $15.00 each are they good or should I get others? Also what about plug wires...stick with NGK? I am only going to start with a 50 shot, but I'm one of those ppl who wants to always do it right the first time and not rush. sdorry for all the questions, just don't want to mess something up you know. -Ryan

You should get a pressure gauge, so you can tell when you're at optimum bottle pressure. A/F gauge is useless, you might however, consider this- http://www.percyshp.com/digextemin.html -it will give you real-time EGT's.
Remote bottle opener is a convenience accessory that is not as important as making sure your motor is not blowing up. Keep in mind a NX 50 shot is equivelent to a NOS 70 shot...as far as plugs, run ngk bkr6e-11, they are cheap and safe, and wil not foul like 7's will in everyday non-juiced driving. Your ngk wires are perfect...
